Alonso is fine in the field. I have no issue w/him in the field. No one expects Keith Hernandez anyway. The main problem is he's fallen into some bad habits at the plate, and the NL pitchers are feasting on him. Lets see in mid July.
I love Pete as a Met but my biggest issue with him is that he doesn’t hit good pitching. He fattens up his numbers against backend bullpen guys but rarely against other great players. With that said, losing him would be tough.
Cohen made a big mistake not trading him over this past winter when some of us were constantly posting that he should do that at that time. Trading him now or at the deadline will get the Mets significantly less for him than they would have gotten for him 3 or 4 months ago. Cohen would be insane to give Alonso 300 million dollars or even a 200 million dollar contract.
Alonso will hit HRs. The real question is will he hit for a respectable average. The low .200s won't cut it and I doubt the Mets will be a top bidder if he has 40 HRs bats .200 and the Mets finish with a .500 record. As the owner of the Pirates Branch Rickey told Ralph Kiner when he asked for a raise after hitting 37 HRs "We can finish last with or without you".
I have been saying Pete is a good DH for 2 years now. But Pete looks like he doesn't listen to nobody. That is why I say see what you can get for him at the trade deadline. Hopefully he will come out of this slump soon so you can get a decent package. Bring up Vientos and see if he can surprise us. Pete is starting to remind me of Dave Kingman.
Very good point if he’s not hitting homers what’s his impact on a baseball game. He’s slow, fair defensively he’s not a part of the future for the Mets
I mean whether or not ya resign him depends hugely on how much lol. Ya can’t just say yes or no they should resign him, without debating the $$ side of it lol.
BT IS N0T AWARE THERE IS A H0CKEY TEAM IN THE 2nd R0UND THAT PIAYS AT MSG AND MiIIi0NS IN THE TRI STATE AREA ARE EXCITED AB0UT IT, YET HE PRACTICAIIY JACKS 0FF 0VER THE KNICKS!!!
Mets have the highest payroll in MLB. Alonso is a solid DH, but they should grow with Batty and Alvarez. First base is too valuable to have with a home run or bust player.
@@robertrob3399all he said was grow with Baty and Alavarez smart ass he didn’t say anything about right now. U were too busy trying to show up the guy and u came out looking like the idiot
He should have been moved in the off season. As a Boras guy he was NEVER resigning with the Mets and now you’re going to lose him and get nothing back. It’s obvious he has already checked out and is thinking about his next team. And not for nothing, his lifetime WAR is 17. That’s the same as Dave Kingman
They have blown 2 first place leads. Finished 30 games out last year. Will do the same this year. So what impact has he had on winning ? Don’t care about home run derby.
Nine homers aint no sign of collapsed. Just wrong batters slot. Pete belongs in the 6 or 7th hole. 1. Marte RF/ CF 2. Mauricio 2nd base / SS (DH) 3. JD Martinez(DH) 1st Base 4. Lindor SS (DH) 5.Alverez C (DH) 6. Alonso 1st Base (DH) 7. Baty 3rd Base 8. McNiel UTL/ Badder OF 9. Nimmo CF /LF
yeah smh, prob big mistake for hiring boras. Pretty decent call bt. On Stearns. he's had many clutch hits and homers tho, idk if you can say not clutch across the board. Last month you make the statement. Rookie Ryan Clifford is a 1b in the minors, and a lefty. he's also like 23 y/o. For sure, Alonoso is more dh worthy! for sure. best of both, Alonso dh Ryan Clifford 1b. Certainly Stearns is the feedback and news about update to info in Ryan Clifford and the prospects. That call with the kid getting up and not watching the rest of the game was Gold!!! Should have done that myself!!! These guys to need take more calls.
Mets need to start talking about "team" Not, one player !! Last year, this year ?? Tired of this one trick pony !! PItching wins championships...plus the team, and everyone playing their part. Period
Pete is a head case, Boras is stroking his ego & so far he is an ANCHOR! IF they are intent on a winning future they NEED to cash in on him by trading for prospects. Let him fail elsewhere.
Pete is absolutely lost at the plate. No pitch recognition at all. Gotta get back to basics. Start by taking pitches, looking to go the other way. The hits will come but right now he looks so out of sorts at the plate
Why does success matter? If the Mets cared about success they would hire Trevor Bauer. I’ll forever have Terry Collins batting Ike Davis cleanup and expecting fans to show up. Same organization that sits the hot hand. Same one that says we’re scared to hire Bauer. So frustrating.
The guy is in a slump. Its a 2-week slump. It happens to players of all talent levels. You guys need to take a breath and wait another week or two before you throw the baby out with the bath water. Judge has gone through several of these periods. You guys are overwhelmingly overthinking this thing.
Mets as usual, trying to get players on the cheap. Even if it means doing it to their best player/hitter the past four years. And don't think you're getting Soto Met brass. Soto will need Alonzo to be his "Pippin ". Absent that, don't see any rings on the horizon for the Mess, er I mean Mets. :)
Overreaction. Whether it's "Mets are a great team" during winning streaks or "Mets are a bunch of losers" during losing streaks. Anybody that watches baseball will realized in a 162 game season you're going to have up and downs. Look at Aaron Judge, is he a scam artist too? Great players will have down times. Darryl Strawberry had a streak of no HRs in 80 ABs, Keither Hernandez had a streak of no hits in 50 ABs straight. It happens to the best of them. While people are used to looking at baseball stats averaged out, but in reality good things (and unfortunately bad things) come in bunches. Alonso will go on a crazy streak of 6 HRs in 4 games, and lay an egg for the next 12, and at the end of the season he'll get his 40-50HRs. See Lindor, he gets 8 RBIs and will do nothing for the next 5 games. That's why baseball you're hoping that with the 9 batters on the field, they take turns on hot streaks (the same applies to pitchers too in their own way). When all the Mets got hot at once in their great run last week, I was worried because I know all of them will cool off at the same time too. And when that happens it'll be ugly (like now).
The problem with Alonso is also that he thinks he is better than he actually is
Alonso is fine in the field. I have no issue w/him in the field. No one expects Keith Hernandez anyway. The main problem is he's fallen into some bad habits at the plate, and the NL pitchers are feasting on him. Lets see in mid July.
I won’t talk bad about Alonso but he better start thinking about giving the Mets a major discount.
Pete has been a clubhouse problem for 3 years now . Get rid of him ASAP
I love Pete as a Met but my biggest issue with him is that he doesn’t hit good pitching. He fattens up his numbers against backend bullpen guys but rarely against other great players. With that said, losing him would be tough.
And, not hitting for avg.
He always tends to hit home runs with no runners on base.
I totally agree he don’t hit off the better pitchers. He’s more like a d h I like that idea.
Evan's gonna have that beard forever
Dave Kingman comparison this year Season
Kingman was way better than Alonso lol
210 batting average...batting clean up?? trade him ASAP!!
You should not be getting swept by the Rays at this point.
Alonso is a Dave Kingman.
Love Pete but he's not a Olsen or a Freemen and that is what you want
Calm down, boys. The entire offense is having a problem getting hot , or even showing consistency, at the same time. Take a deep breath.
The problem is the Mets are owned by a Billionaire and their front office isnt even in the same zipcode as the Rays
Cohen made a big mistake not trading him over this past
winter when some of us were constantly posting that he
should do that at that time. Trading him now or at the
deadline will get the Mets significantly less for him than
they would have gotten for him 3 or 4 months ago.

Pete is a number 6 hitter not a 4 in the line up
Pete is killing us...Trade him away for prospects and let Vientos play 1st rest of season to see what we have here
Prospects? 😂
I agree. Hopefully he does better so we can get good players for him. But if we keep him we need a discount for sure.
It’s inevitable that if they are out of it by deadline he will be traded
I have been saying Pete is a good DH for 2 years now. But Pete looks like he doesn't listen to nobody. That is why I say see what you can get for him at the trade deadline. Hopefully he will come out of this slump soon so you can get a decent package. Bring up Vientos and see if he can surprise us. Pete is starting to remind me of Dave Kingman.
All offseason it was “guaranteed 50 home runs” 😂
Sterns ONLY commitment to the fans was that Pete would start the season at first base for the Mets. THAT'S ALL!
I agree! I believe at the deadline he is gone
Very good point if he’s not hitting homers what’s his impact on a baseball game. He’s slow, fair defensively he’s not a part of the future for the Mets
He is no better than a George Foster reincarnation
Love Alonso but the K’s are getting old.
It kills me to say this, but for over a year now Pete has turned into a better defensive version of Kyle Schwarber.
Understand Rags fans frustrations. They had a show last week that was all Knicks for 4 hrs
I mean whether or not ya resign him depends hugely on how much lol. Ya can’t just say yes or no they should resign him, without debating the $$ side of it lol.
Correct
WFAN talking about anyone else's shocking decline is irony at it's finest.
The new core should be Lindor, Baty, Alvarez, Vientos, Scott. Build your team around them.
Alonso, Nimmo, and McNeil will be elsewhere in August. The contingency pieces were already brought in.
Nimmo ain’t going nowhere buddy. He’s struggling with avg but he still gets on base at very high clip. His avg will get better
@@Jqueens93 I hope you're right. Bringing in Bader provided them with a fallback, though.
I take Piazza and Wright over Pete . Hands down. Not the same type of player.
Pete's neck got stretched, Not his fault! He will bounce back, get him protection, use, the junk yard dogs! Let em loose! They're across the street!
They got him protection
@@jmart1393 Ok. So now what?
@@Justin-tu4fk Now you trade his ass
@@jmart1393 Fine with me, but at the low end, for what?
100%…LFG RANGERS!!!!

Rangers are not relevant
let pete go and save that money for soto. Pete want much. after that homerun derby he aint the same. dont pay pete. USE THAT MONEY TO SIGN SOTO.
They should have traded him in the offseason
Mets have the highest payroll in MLB. Alonso is a solid DH, but they should grow with Batty and Alvarez. First base is too valuable to have with a home run or bust player.
Alvarez is out with surgery smarty pants
Terrible take. Besides Freeman, who doesn’t fit that archetype?
Casual met fans should not be allowed to talk sports anymore I’m serious it’s to brain dead and cringe for me
Alonso is a modern day Harmon Killebrew. He provides power but little else.
@@robertrob3399all he said was grow with Baty and Alavarez smart ass he didn’t say anything about right now. U were too busy trying to show up the guy and u came out looking like the idiot

Go Phillies!
Not opening with the Rangers today is a disgrace.
100% LFG RANGERS!!!!
Seriously
Fuck da Rags
They like negativity lol
Mmm hockey?..no thanks says most athletes sorry for truth bomb
Judge is starting to hit
Pete will be fine. He’ll get it going..
Is there a comparison? Please met fans don't tell me so
This just sums it up about the Mets they suck
They have blown 2 first place leads. Finished 30 games out last year. Will do the same this year. So what impact has he had on winning ? Don’t care about home run derby.
Put sal and brandon on at 3am
If you tell Alonso to be the DH and we will give him 150 million, he will leave to a team for 140 million.
He’s a marginal first baseman and his value is going down. He’s the modern day version of Dave Kingman
The Mets have been on a roll & still Pete is doing next to nothing still. He hits a home run every two weeks.
Nine homers aint no sign of collapsed. Just wrong batters slot. Pete belongs in the 6 or 7th hole.
1. Marte RF/ CF
2. Mauricio 2nd base / SS (DH)
3. JD Martinez(DH) 1st Base
4. Lindor SS (DH)
5.Alverez C (DH)
6. Alonso 1st Base (DH)
7. Baty 3rd Base
8. McNiel UTL/ Badder OF

Sal accepting Alonso when he looks like the younger version of Stanton. Sure Sal.. let them sign him long term.

These guys to need take more calls.
I would let him walk . He is a career 200 hitter . The Braves would never sign a guy like him .

Alonso is a country boy. He wants to go to a different type of State. He will be happy once he's out of NY.
He is from Florida. Not a country boy. Do better
@@KevinElliott-vu9vyHe misses noodling. Boy is gone after this season.
Never pay right handed hitting first baseman trade him now 😡
Compare pete to freeman or Olson he is definitely not gonna get the money everybody thinks

Alonso is too much of a thinker and headcase. Sorry. Move on and get a consistent player like Soto
From yankees to mets? Why yall like to be disappointed?

Is it shocking? Only to Mets fans
Keep the Polar Bear's name out your fishing mouth!
Sell him to the Ducks or Reds or Japan
Sell your brain to science for being such an idiot
Or Trade Lindor for two prospects n place Acuna in there wit Jett Mets williams called up
Then trade Alonso n JD Martinez for starter
i'll take judge over pete any day
No shit captain obvious
Pete Fatlonso
Nobody cares about hockey! But you!
I am not a hockey fan but bad job by your producers to not tell you to open up with the Rangers. Heck even the Knicks would have been acceptable.
I always root against the Knicks and rangers in the playoffs because I get tired of how much they get talked about.
Dude stop talking crap about producers nobody cares about hockey idiot move to Canada they care slightly more there
@@jimboscooter432 nice dude go watch ballet

Shhhhhhhh
Get rid of him Hes useless
Your brain is useless huh? WOW
Idiot Sal.. Pay and DH a guy who doesn't hit. Brilliant!
